I don't see how you make the leap from a syntax you don't like, to the language lacking cohesion. In my experience Rust code looks perfectly cohesive, and once you have the sigils in your head you simply parse them as what they mean. To give an example, I don't believe that this code: https://github.com/chris-morgan/rust-http/blob/master/src/ex... is any less cohesive than this: https://gist.github.com/thisishugo/8433714 Obviously each to their own, but I'm finding Rust a very enjoyable language to work with.
